How Safe is it to Use Bluetooth Devices?
Bluetooth devices are types of wireless technology used to transmit data over short distances. These devices are used for both audio and visual communication. The Bluetooth devices have relatively higher bandwidth and make use of electromagnetic waves for transmitting radiation. This is the reason why an excessive use of Bluetooth devices may lead to harmful effects on the human brain and several other sensory organs.
The microwave radiation emitted by Bluetooth devices may cause no harm if used to a bare minimum; however, as users get addicted to the wireless technology, it becomes unsafe. Since the wavelength of the radiation frequencies of a Bluetooth device is quite short, they travel long distances. In the process, the radiation often penetrates the tissues of the human skin & reaches deep below the skin cells. This leads to damage such as malfunctioning of the brain and biological imbalance. It has been proven that microwave radiation emitted from Bluetooth devices can cause not only the user harm but also pass on the harmful effects on the offspring by genetically damaging human skin cells. Illnesses such as brain tumor, brain cancer, and excessive hair loss in the present generation, are all the result of excessive use of Bluetooth devices. The most highly affected human organs by microwave radiation are the brain, eyes, and ears. While temporary diseases like headaches, neck pains, & skin allergies are frequent if Bluetooth devices are used frequently, a user may also be affected by serious ailments like permanent blindness or deafness.
Misconceptions Abound
All types of technology come with its own set of pros and cons. The same is applicable for Bluetooth devices too. It will be safe to say that most harmful effects associated with these devices have resulted from misconceptions. For instance, did you know that Bluetooth devices emit less radiation when compared to a normal mobile phone? A test conducted by the Department of Trade & Industry of UK says that the radiation emission level of cells phones is at least 65 percent higher than that of Bluetooth devices.
Medical reports are of the opinion that only if the human body absorbs radiation higher than 1.6 watts per kilogram of electronic devices, will the radiation cause any potential damage to human skin cells. Bluetooth devices emit radiation of not more than 0.001 watts per kilogram. Hence, it can justifiably be said that these devices do not cause much harm to human health, until they are misused or used at an excessive rate. In fact, Bluetooth devices such as headsets are often used to keep away the cell phone from direct contact with the human skin. This actually reduces the ill effects caused by radio wave transmission, which would have been enhanced by the use of only a cell phone. Moreover, regulatory bodies ensure maintenance of the ‘specific absorption rate' in relation to total exposure of wireless radiation that the human body can be subjected to. This rate has to be maintained by Bluetooth device manufacturing companies.
An important point to remember here is that if a mobile device user wants to minimize the harmful effects caused by Bluetooth devices, he/she can keep the dial pad oriented towards the body, when the device is kept inside a pocket.
We live in an age where survival without the latest technology has become impossible. Bluetooth devices are useful, effective, and can be harm free if all precautions are maintained.
